My invention relates to pads or protectors for mattresses and other bedding; and the object is to provide a simple andinexpensive device of this character which will serve as a supplemental mattress and effectually protect the ordinary mattress or other bedding from bed-wetting.

No special relative arrangement of the projections is essential; but they should be separated sufficiently to permit the pad to be thoroughly cleansed and dried.

It will be obvious that the device constructed as above described and shown in the drawings will eectually serve the purpose in View and can be readily washed and dried and kept in sanitary condition.
